This is the sound of a text message. Nowadays, apart from advertisements, scammers, and 10086, no one in my circle of friends contacts me through text messages. So I didn't pay much attention to this message at first, and I ignored it and immediately dialed Dominic Hartnell's phone number. But after only two rings, a mechanical female voice told me that the call couldn't be connected at the moment. I didn't think much of it, as it's normal to occasionally have no signal. Thinking that I would call again later, I casually exited the dialing screen and switched back to the home screen, then opened the text message. The content of the message caught my eye. "Your husband has been in a car accident and urgently needs treatment. Please transfer 10,000 yuan to the following account immediately, and we will provide medical care." At the end of the message was a long string of numbers, which appeared to be a bank account number. When I first saw this content, I felt a bit confused, especially since the call just now didn't go through. I started to feel a bit anxious. However, there are too many scammers nowadays, and various scams keep emerging. So considering this, amidst the panic, I still had a trace of clarity in my subconscious. After patting my chest a few times and taking a few deep breaths, I dialed Dominic Hartnell's phone number again with force. At this point, I was thinking that if I still couldn't get through, I would transfer the money as the text message instructed. Better safe than sorry. If Dominic Hartnell really had an accident and the treatment was delayed because of this money, I would hate myself. Fortunately, when I made the call this time, someone immediately answered on the other end. When I heard Dominic Hartnell's familiar voice coming from the other side, my heart, which had been pounding due to worry and nervousness, finally started to calm down. Dominic Hartnell's tone of voice was no different from usual, and it didn't sound like something had happened. Plus, I could hear the sound of the train station's announcement broadcast coming through the phone. I knew for sure that he was fine and had already arrived at the station. Now that I knew it was just a false alarm, I relaxed. It felt like a joke as I recounted the text message I had received to Dominic Hartnell. By the way, I also praised myself, saying that I remained calm and composed in the face of danger. That's me. Dominic Hartnell laughed on the other end of the phone, and he hadn't forgotten to boast about himself to me. After chatting with him on the phone for a while and asking him to call me back after talking to my mom, I didn't bother him anymore. After hanging up the phone, I looked at the text message again and couldn't help but laugh. This kind of message is obviously a scam. I can't believe I was nervous about it. I shook my head with a smile and then deleted the message. I put this little incident out of my mind. When I was halfway through watching the second episode of the TV series, my phone rang again, this time it was my mom. Before answering, I guessed that either she had already arrived or she had met Dominic Hartnell. Sure enough, my mom told me on the phone that Dominic Hartnell had already picked her up and they were on their way back.After about an hour and a half, close to eleven o'clock, the two of them arrived home. It seemed like my mom had brought a lot of things, and Dominic Hartnell was carrying bags full of stuff. And there my mom was, still holding a big bag of risotto in her hand. I reached out to help her carry it, but my mom quickly moved away and didn't let me touch it. There was nothing I could do but step aside and let her enter the house quickly. My mom walked into the kitchen with the things she was carrying, and I naturally followed her. As we walked, I muttered, "Mom, why did you bring so much stuff? It must be tiring for you to carry it all by yourself." My mom smiled and waved her hand, explaining, "It's not that much. If we had more time, I would have brought even more.""These are all the little things that your dad and I made yesterday, mostly things you like to eat. And there are some things that you can use when you have children in the future." "Oh, and," my mom raised the risotto bag in her hand and waved it in front of my eyes, then placed it on the kitchen counter, continuing, "there are your favorite things inside. Just heat it up when we have lunch and you can eat it directly." "Can you guess what it is?" My mom's eyes were filled with laughter, and she seemed to be in a good mood. Because of that, I also laughed and proudly replied, "What's there to guess? How could I not know my favorite food?" "Sweet and sour fish! Did my dad make it himself? I didn't realize it until now, but just mentioning it makes my mouth water." To be immodest, my dad's fish cooking skills are top-notch, comparable to a five-star chef.I suddenly feel incredibly hungry just thinking about it. I can't wait until lunchtime, so I grab the risotto bag and unzip it. Inside the risotto bag, there are three large boxes: one box of sweet and sour fish, one box of crispy meatballs, and one box of shredded chicken. The last two dishes are my mom's specialties and also my favorites. I can't help but smile with delight, and my appetite instantly awakens. I immediately embrace my mom and give her a few kisses on her cheek like a child. "Mom, I love you and dad so much!" Then I quickly greet Dominic Hartnell, who is coming over with something in his hands. "Honey, hurry up and cook the risotto, I'm starving." Dominic Hartnell smiles and nods, saying, "Alright, you and your mom go sit in the living room and chat. I'll take care of it here."Because my mom is here, I feel a bit embarrassed to say "I love you" to Dominic Hartnell, so I just pout at him, which is my way of showing affection. Then, without hesitation, I grab my mom's arm. When we were at home, both she and my dad were reluctant to let Dominic Hartnell do any work. But now that we're in Lightspring, there's no question that he's the one doing the labor. I don't want my mom to start bustling around as soon as she gets off the train. Strangely, my mom doesn't object at all. She's easy to talk to and follows me back to the living room. Hmm, I think she must have missed me after not seeing me for so long. After we sit down on the sofa, I pour a glass of water for my mom. "Mom, you must be tired from the journey. Have some water and let's rest." My mom takes a sip of water before responding, "Your dad accompanied me to the train station. I spent the entire journey sitting on the train, and Han came to pick me up when I arrived. I'm not tired at all." "It's you I'm concerned about. How have you been feeling lately? Since you're about to give birth, you need to be extra cautious. And, have you and your partner been behaving responsibly?" *Cough... cough!* Upon hearing my mom's final question and seeing her curious expression, I unintentionally choke on my own saliva.
